As much as I dislike Justin Upton, I think you have to keep him here. Last spot I think is between Wainwright and Dickey. It is hard to not pick Dickey at this point, but since knuckleballers are traditionally unpredictable year to year, it is not a safe pick. Still, Wainwright has been erratic enough that I would probably go with Dickey and hope for the best.

For the most part I agree with everyone else. I would really look to move Dickey though. I have no faith that Dickey keeps this up. If you can deal him to someone who does think he can, then do it. And really I like Wainwright as a better keeper than Dickey but I realize that Dickey has had a pretty amazing year so it is hard to keep Wainwright over him.

Agreed. I do like Wainwright a lot for next season. I'd take my chances on re-drafting though rather than looking at him as a keeper. As the roster stands though ... gotta be Dickey.

Yep, pretty much confirmed my predicament here - obvious 5 and I can't seriously throw Dickey back, even if he is 100. I pushed hard to land a better 1B keeper during the season but no one bit unfortunately because everyone had a solid 1-2 sp combo that also had a 1B I could trade for.

Got to agree with you. Dickey is a perfect trade high guy. In the long run you'll be better off with Wainwright.
